Is it a problem if I ask for a woman to perform my prostate exam?
Im concerned about my prostate health as a black man. I’ve seen stomas and talked to people when doing pastoral work in hospitals with my pastor and many of those poor folks are in regrettable health conditions. and it made me want to start taking my health seriously. but in not comfy with another man putting his digits up my butt. Id feel far more comfortable if a woman performed it instead.
But im hearing a lot of negative feedback from woman on the internet about males who request female medical professionals.
